Woon, ot

. Cleveland,in the county of Cuyahoga and State voi-Chio, have inventedcertain new and Y 5 useful'Improvements in Atomizers; and I do hereby declare the followin clear, and exact description to be a full,

which it. appertainsr to lmake and use the This invention The invention has for its object the production ofmeans whereby the relative pro- I5 portionsl of air` and 'liquid may be regulated, whereby the same atomizermay be used. for

liquids off different specific gravities and any consistency.:

f To thisend the inventionwill be hereinaf- 2o ter fully 'set forth, and particularly pointed z5 'Iteferring to the' drawings, 10 designates Vthel usual liquid-receptacle, in which the atomizer is supported by means of a stopper 11. The atomizer comprises a horizonta l a an ed casing-12, lrovided with a mixingerl), from w 'ch leads the outlet or spray pipe 14, the'latter beingdetachably connected by means of a threaded coupling. `Said chamber is also provided with a ower threaded opening through which the dependprojects, the upper end of said tube being ta ered andcurve'd, as indicated at 16, to al ow 4compressed air to act thereon from all.' sides. The-rear end'. of casin 12 is thickened and provided With'an an- 17, which communicates with 'one-'c anne 18 of the airtube, said latter being detachably connected to casing-12 and depending therefrom. The air-tubeisprovided with a nipple 19, coni y 45 nected by a'tube 2O with any suitable 'aircompressing' device, a channel 21 being pro- Avided, whereby the air from said compressor 1 enters the receptacle 1'0 to actv upon the.k surface of the liquid thereinv contained. In or- 5o der to'vary the roportions ofair and liquid,

Said valveislocated the invention, such as dll enableothers skilled in the art tol q relates tov certain new and Auseful improvements 1n ,atomizers p i Specification of Letters Patent.

the tube 15 into the discharge or lspray pipe 14, the air from channel 18 passing into chamber 13,/thereby causing said liquid at sulting ina corresponding increase in the pressure upon the l1( uid.

The advantages o my improved atomizer will -be at once apparent to those vskilled in the art to whichit appertains.

particularly noted that the sameis exceedingly simple in construction and that the parts ymaybe readily separated for repairs or -a vantage is that I am enabled to' regulate the relativeproportions of air and li uid, whereby'the same atomizer may be use for liquids of different specific gravities and consistcncies, thus accomplishing in one device what has heretofore re uired-a sepa-rate device for each liquid emp oyed.

5.y An atomizer com rising a casing provided with a forwardly-arranged 1111x111 rchamber and a thickened rear wall, said wa l being provided with an air-channel communicating with said chamber, a detachable outlet-pipe leading from said chamber, a liquid-tube detachably secured t0 said casing 'and projecting into said chamber, an air-tube detachabl connected to said casing and leading to sai air-channel, means for supplying compressed air to said air-tube, and means for varying the volume of air passing from said air-tube to said chamber.

in testimony whereof I have signed this specification in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
